The

The Hello and welcome to this very special bonus episode of real life ghost stories.

And I am joined today by the wonderful Ray, also known as the Jacko Lantern on TikTok.

Now I've been following Ray for ages and on his TikTok account, he visits spooky places all over the UK and tells the haunted stories associated

with those places and his content is divine. And when I found out that Ray is also a funeral director in real life, in his day-to-day job,

I thought I have to get him on the podcast. In this episode, we talk about the usual stuff,

Ray's paranormal experiences, his favorite scary movies, all that jazz. But we also talk about what it

is like day-to-day as a funeral director and whether or not

he has any paranormal experiences associated with his day job. And those questions were posed by

Patreon listeners. Now, as always, this episode was recorded remotely. And during that process,

we had to sacrifice Ray's microphone for his headphones because if there was

no headphones, there would be an echo. And as a result, the microphone quality is not the best. However,

this episode was so fun to record. Ray is a joy and I implore you to listen to his stories of being a

funeral director. I cried. I cried during this episode.

As always, I will leave the links to everywhere that you can find Ray in the description of this episode.

Please make sure that you go and give him a follow on social media, on TikTok, on Instagram, on YouTube.

And I really, really hope that you enjoy this episode.

And I am joined in the virtual studio by the amazing Ray, otherwise known as the Jackal

Lantern. Ray, how are you? I am great. Thank you. Really excited to be on here. And when you'd said

you'd been seeing some of my videos over time, likewise, I've been seeing yours as well. And I love hearing some of the folklore-based ones. So I'm doing good. It's lovely to chat with you.

Thank you for taking the time, because I understand that you have a full-time job, which we will get into later, and you also are a content creator,

as well as you are a full-time day job. So you've got a lot going on, so I really appreciate
